One day I found a broken blue insulator in the bush behind my home that someone had placed on a twig of a burnt out tree following a fire. I photographed this and later played with the image. You can see the result.

Taking a grossly overexposed shot and reversing it to achieve a negative, and then pulling and pushing it with contrast and saturation I arrived at a more nightmarish conclusion. In normal light, the metallic tangle would have been flat grey, but horror abounds when you present it completely out of context.

Found these two near perfect insulators buried in the dirt along side railroad tracks near my home. My daughter had found one a while back that was broken in half. These are getting harder and harder to find, outside of flea markets, especially in this good a condition. Nikon D80, 18-105VR, 1/125, f/5.5 @ 105mm ISO 200

In the back yard of the “haunted house” was an old timber slab built shed … and you guessed it … Mandy & I ventured inside. The floor was steadily being eaten away by termites and rot but the walls were sound if not well ventilated through the cracks in the timber. Still inside were various tools of past days and these ceramic insulators were scattered in a corner. Loving everything old, I just couldn’t resist them!! Please check out the other images in this series on my site as well as Ozzzywoman. /

May 2009 Demolition of Barn Dance / “In the context of physical construction, deconstruction is the selective dismantlement of building components, specifically for re-use, recycling, and waste management. It differs from demolition where a site is cleared of its building by the most expedient means. Deconstruction has also been defined as “construction in reverse”. The process of dismantling structures is an ancient activity that has been revived by the growing field of sustainable, green building. Buildings, like everything, have a life-cycle. Deconstruction focuses on giving the materials within a building a new life once the building as a whole can no longer continue. / When buildings reach the end of their useful life, they are typically demolished and hauled to landfills. Implosions or ‘wrecking-ball’ style demolition is relatively inexpensive and offers a quick method of clearing sites for new structures. On the other hand, this method creates substantial amounts of waste. Components within old buildings may still be valuable, sometimes more valuable than at the time the building was constructed. Deconstruction is a method of harvesting what is commonly considered “waste” and reclaiming it into useful building material.” ~ Wikipedia / I can only hope since the process appears to be a slow one as opposed to one of ultimate tear down that a salvage process of some kind is underway. /

Gaming horseshoes and an old powerline insulator. Pitching horseshoes was a popular diversion in the old west, and remains so, today. Four players in teams of two, each take turns attempting to land their two horseshoes so as to encircle a verticle iron peg. The pegs are placed in “pits”, forty feet apart. One player from each team stands with one foot against the peg in their pit, and throws to the opposite peg. “Ringers” are worth three points, “leaners” earn two points, and the shoe nearest the stake (within the width of a shoe) counts one point. In local tradition, a game is complete when one team has scored 21 points, with a two-point lead. Pitching shoes are considerably larger than the shoes worn by actual horses.
